Wait.
You mean to tell me, we didn't end
In tragedy?

I woke up this morning
11:05am, your body no longer next to me
Snuggling, tangeling me
In my cocoon, you were so glad
To be in a bed again
In my bed again.

But this morning
Kitty cat meow's in her sleep
A furball next to me
There is something fitting about
Watching me get down to country music
You said.

A lump in my throat here
There.
I can't believe it all went so well.
I can still smell, taste your skin
***** pictures on my phone, can't erase them
Just yet
But a big jet plane,
Will soon urge me
Not to look back
At what just won't ever
Work.


A protein bar, miss a gym class
Send out the technology, can't decipher
Everything.
Its Friday, its Friday
The whole city wants to dance in the sunlight
Yesterday it rained and gloomed
Just like my face, when you walked out this door
For the final time.
Your knock-kn-kn-kno-knock knock
You were just as I hoped
No tears or screams?

But we inherently--
We just don't really wanna get along
Words I slap in my mouth
Someday some man will be so glad
You lacked bravery in every respect.

"I will always love you."
You said my name, so many times
I remember when I was growing up
I always believed: Take note of people who say your name, how many times they say it, it indicates that they really love you.
My little blonde head, creating academia in love.

Less glazed over, but a stain glass
Over my eyes still remains
Work it out, rinse it off
Massaging your back, I wish you didn't always hide
Behind your made up comedy.

But it doesn't matter what I wish
When it comes to you and your now well kept beard
Not because *******, or **** me
But because you ordered a drink you thought I would like
On the menu, laughter all around us
But I looked at you and knew


There is real joy
In leaving.
